Catalyst

L.A. lights

Never shine quite as bright as in the movies

Still wanna go

'Cause something here

In the way

In the way that we're constantly moving

Reminds you of home



[Chorus]

So you're taking these pills for to fill up your soul

And you're drinking them down with cheap alcohol

And I'd be inclined to be yours for the taking

And part of this terrible mess that you're making

But me, I'm the catalyst



When you say love, mmm

Is a simple chemical reaction

Can't say I agree

'Cause my chemical

Yeah, yeah

Left me a beautiful disaster

Still love's all I see



[Chorus]

So I'm taking these pills for to fill up my soul

And I'm drinking them down with cheap alcohol

And you'd be inclined to be mine for the taking

And part of this terrible mess that I'm making

But you, you're the catalyst



And you'll be the vein

You'll be the pain

You'll be the scar

You'll be the road

Rolling below

The wheels of a car

And all of your thoughts on God

Don't know if I'm strong enough, no

You'll be the vein

You'll be the pain

You'll be the catalyst



[Instrumental]



These L.A. lights, no, no

They don't shine quite as bright as back in Frisco

Do you wanna go

Still wanna go
